  6. intimidator sss 4x4 swap/lift?

    in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech

    Posted

    Alright so I've done some searching and I can't find all of the information I'm looking for.

    I have an intimidator ss which I'm sure most know is an 06 and 2 wheel drive. After having it for a few years I love the truck but I'm more of a 4x4 fan but I love the power and style of the sss. So when a buddy of mine did a sas on his z71 it got me thinking. How difficult would it be to swap in the differential, swap the back of the 4l80e to 4x4 and run some type of auto transfer case. This way I could still have the fun of smoking the tires but will still be able to hook. (Just to note I'm not after speed and 1/4 times.. more for the fun of the truck.) After the swap id like to slightly lift it. So who can help me? What all is needed? How hard/$ is the swap. I'm looking for information and I know there are many opposed to my idea. If i wanted a pure speed truck id have got an rest. I know you guys know these trucks. Help is greatly appreciated especially reading this long ass post.

    Thanks

    :idiot: BOY! WHAT'S A MATTER WITH YOU!

    camber isn't really necessary. Being AWD you wont want too much in the front anyways since you're gonna want to keep as close a contact patch as you can in the front compared to the rears (not 100% on that, but since you need same rolling diamater all around it makes sense in my head.) That being said, mine are have a decent amount of negative camber in the front and i think it looks bad ass. no way to camber the rears unless you get denali (i think? independent rear) suspension.

     

    The only time you really need to camber wheels for a drop is if youre trying to do that hellaflush bullshit fad.

    it be sick if we could camber the rear! drift truck!!

    not to sound like a douche but if you want it lower i would get rid of the huge wheels

    X2. and you should maybe look into bags, you gotta remember SS's come an 1" lower in the front and 2" lower in the rear, compared to normal silverados, it will look like a 6/9. after i do my turbo build i plan on bringing my truck to ekstensive and left them bag my truck, still keeping it AWD just can't ride with the bags down in the front
